Managing Partner - Profitable Concepts and Strategies in the Digital Age

Herbolzheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany

About

Fresh Thinking. Talk to me and I will listen. I will analyze. I will enable you to succeed and thrive. I founded Reppel & Partners P/L (R&P) in Singapore in 2002 and have over 25 years of experience in successful technology management consulting, helping clients to become more efficient, more successful, and simply faster. My technology expertise, combined with years of senior management experience, makes me a good sparring partner for C-Suite/SVP/EVPs who want to push the boundaries of business success in a holistic way. R&P has delivered numerous digitalization programmes with measurable success (e.g. a solution to triple the number of new customers, the transformation of the entire back end of a large for-profit educational institution, the successful establishment of an Industry 4.0 practice for a client, and others). Organizations have benefited from R&P's unique CIO service for over 20 years (e.g. interim CIO for an engineering and manufacturing client supporting 15+ sites; building and running the IT of a regional presence in the oil and gas industry; outsourced IT management and break/fix services for a client now in its 20th year; successful cloud migrations, etc.). Since 2023, Reppel Consulting (RC) has been replicating R&P's unrivaled operating model and success in Germany and EMEA, adding delivery capabilities for clients here. Clients have commented on my rare combination of applying a strategic view while being operationally aware, keeping management and staff informed and making change stick. ➜ Your goal is operational efficiency and excellence.
